Yes, let's remember when Obama said he'd veto any effort to get rid of the sequestration automatic spending cuts. But that was 2011. Now he's changed his mind.

How typical that the White House press corps only start complaining on how Obama treats them when they can't get a photo op of Obama and Tiger Woods golfing together. Otherwise, they're totally pliant to the White House storyline on major stories. Deny them info on the President's golf dates and they become journalistic sharks. Talk about the President's policies and they quickly return to stenographer-mode.

A good question for Joe Biden from a video town hall: "Another questioner asked why the administration thinks a gun ban would effectively get guns out of the hands of criminals if making drugs illegal doesn’t keep drugs away from criminals."

Roll Call takes an in-depth look at the case that will be argued before the Supreme Court to challenge Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act that requires certain jurisdictions to get preclearance from the Justice Department before making any changes in their voting procedures. Perhaps the Court will recognize that things have changed since the mid-1970s which is the last time when Congress considered the formulas determining which jurisdictions are covered.

Liberals are really stretching when they try to argue that Republicans are increasingly anti-black based on answers to survey questions that indicate the respondent doesn't support programs that give preferences to racial minorities. Suddenly, wanting to treat all races the same indicates one is anti-black.

You have to laugh about the Obama v. White House Press Corps dust-up, stilted as it is! After his ill-fated association with prostitutes and whores, Tiger Woods has finally decided to show some discretion about being publicly linked (golf course pun right there!) with unsavory characters, hence, no photos with BHO.

I guess Woods' reputation has NOT been rehabilitated as well as his game. Such is the fate of a player, whatever the game. No, Michelle apparently has no desire to associate with a man that has been so busy waging his own private war on women, so she went for the mountains [at taxpayer expense] while her husband shacked up on the golf course with Tiger. Good thing for Obama that his wife wasn't so picky about creeps when it came time to call in Bill Clinton to woo the ladies for their all important votes.

When the hypocrisy rises to such levels as we see so often with this president, all that is left to do is enjoy the irony!
